This might help someone. As a novice mechanic (years ago with RWD Chevys and the like) i recently decided to repair my Timing Cover leak & with 137k, also had timing set ready. The car, 01 Sable Front WD V6 3.0.
If you dont have AIR (ratchet/impact) dont even think about it! Did the water pump last year, not too bad without AIR. BUt timing cover & oil pan, no way without air, you cant "turn" most of the bolts/nuts once you get to it, it must be done with air-ratchet.
Good Luck!
